Chapter 20: The Beginning

Strange to say, Han Ming used to be reluctant to play with children of the same age in the village when he was in the village, because he felt that they were too naïve. But for some reason, Han Ming had a sense of closeness to Zhu Yiwen, and Han Ming was puzzled for a long time, and finally guessed that Zhu Yiwen might have saved his life.

And Zhu Yiwen and Han Ming can also completely relax together, they don't have to care about his status as a young master, they are not ambiguous at all when they should start playing, what war trampling, and they have used eighteen falls over the shoulder.

This is also out of Ping'er and Lan'er's expectations, the previous young master was extremely introverted, and it was impossible to fight with others in the garden, although the current young master's personality has changed greatly, but the young master is a lot happier than before.

Ping'er Lan'er really loves Zhu Yiwen, Zhu Yiwen has no young master at all, she has never regarded them as maids, she has always called them sisters and sisters, which makes their hearts warm all the time.

Ping'er and Lan'er have always been serving Zhu Yiwen closely, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the people who know Zhu Yiwen best, they know that their young master was not too happy in his childhood. The third master was busy with the affairs of the transformation gate and couldn't always be by the young master's side, and the third lady was inexplicably unconscious and never got better, which led to the young master's childhood being "lonely".

Before the age of ten, Zhu Yiwen was quiet, and even spoke slowly, not impatiently, until the appearance of Han Ming now, Zhu Yiwen became a little cheerful and became playful like an ordinary child, but this is still limited to Han Ming, for others, Zhu Yiwen is still very quiet.

Han Ming and Zhu Yiwen chased back and forth in the garden, while Ping'er, Lan'er, and Nan'er followed behind, whispering something.

In the past two months, Han Ming has nothing to tell Nan'er at all, except for the time of three meals, Nan'er will put away the meals sent by the attendants and wait for Han Ming to come back, Nan'er has nothing to do.

And Ping'er Lan'er is even more idle, so the three of them often run together to chat, and after a long time, the relationship becomes deeper, and in the end, the three of them are tired of being together all day long, and they almost don't marry Jinlan.

After Han Ming and Zhu Yiwen finished dinner together, they wandered around Zhu Chiyuan, climbed trees, picked flowers, swam in the lake, hunted birds, and played until late before returning to their residences.

Zhu Yiwen disappeared after that day, and according to Nan'er, Zhu Yiwen didn't even bring Ping'er and Lan'er, so I don't know where he went!

"I eloped. Han Ming muttered evilly.

Ever since Zhu Yiwen started the medicinal bath, Han Ming also started his cultivation wholeheartedly, at the beginning, he would squeeze out an hour every day to practice the supporting internal strength of the invisible swordsmanship, and this set of internal strength was really as Senior Brother Qi said, it was very easy to cultivate.

Moreover, when Han Ming later discovered that when he cultivated the internal strength of the Invisible Sword Technique at the same time, his internal strength increased rapidly, which was completely several times that of practicing the internal strength alone! This made Han Ming surprised and extremely surprised at the same time, could it be that the Invisible Sword had anything to do with the Transformation Yuan Sword Technique.

"Senior Brother Qi also knows this method, but why didn't he tell me?" Han Ming muttered to himself.

Since discovering this shortcut, Han Ming simply no longer practiced the internal strength of the invisible sword duel alone, but practiced the internal strength at the same time as practicing the sword style every morning, although his body was a little sore after that, he could still bear it, and after practicing the nameless oral duel, the pain would disappear without a trace!

Although I don't know why this is happening, there is nothing unwell in my body for the time being, so Han Ming doesn't care.

This kind of dedicated cultivation lasted only a few days before being interrupted by Hua Lao, and that day Han Ming returned from practicing swords in the purple bamboo forest, only to find that Hua Lao was standing in front of the bamboo building, and behind him stood respectfully Nan'er.

Han Ming was surprised when he saw this, but in an instant, he thought of what Senior Brother Qi said, and he secretly guessed in his heart, either the detoxification was about to begin!

Although Han Ming thought a lot in his heart the moment he saw Hua Lao, he still didn't dare to slack off in etiquette, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

"The disciple is late, let the Chinese master wait, and ask the Chinese master to forgive the sin. ”

"Hehe, looking at your face, I think Na Yuangong has cultivated to a certain level, do you still remember what you promised me?" Hua Lao stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, looking at Han Ming with a kind face, he really had the appearance of an immortal wind and bones, if he was an old immortal, I am afraid that no one would not believe it.

Han Ming would not be confused by Hua Lao's appearance, he had seen Hua Lao's fierce appearance with his own eyes, and he was tortured by Hua Lao with an unknown secret weapon.

"Since the Chinese master passed down the Na Yuan Gong, the disciple did not dare to slack off, and practiced every day, but the entry was slow, and there was a disappointing expectation of the Chinese teacher, but the disciple always remembered what he promised Hua Lao, and did not dare to forget the slightest. Han Ming lowered his posture as much as possible, at this time, his identity as Young Master Ming didn't matter what it was!

Seeing Han Ming's respectful attitude, Hua Lao showed a trace of satisfaction, and as soon as he touched his snow-white beard again, he smiled and said: "Okay, it's good that you haven't forgotten, then you can fulfill your promise, you clean up, as short as half a year, as long as more than ten months, you can't come back." ”

Han Ming was shocked when he heard this, how to detoxify it would be so troublesome, even more than ten months, it would be too long, he was a little apprehensive in his heart.

"The disciple has nothing to worry about, there is nothing to clean up, you can go with the Chinese master now!" Han Ming really has nothing to clean up, he is alone, what can he worry about.

Besides, his little life will be in Hua Lao's hands in the future, he doesn't dare to let Hua Lao wait for him anymore, in case Hua Lao's eyes turn green again, and his temperament suddenly changes again, he is still unlucky.

"Since you don't have anything to clean up, then let me go, by the way, take this little girl of yours with you, you will need it!" Hua Lao smiled kindly again, and pointed at Nan'er with one hand.

Nan'er couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Hua Lao pointing at her, and bent down again and again to show respect, but when she reacted, there was a hint of joy on her face, she was Han Ming's maid, but she had no name, there was nothing to serve Han Ming, if she let the second master of Chi know, I am afraid that she would think that she was not dedicated!

And Nan'er knows Zhu Chiyuan's rules, she will be Han Ming's bed warmer in the future, and Han Ming will be her lifelong dependence, but now her relationship with Han Ming is too estranged, and she is not even allowed to help Han Ming clean the room, and she doesn't look like a caring person in the future at all.

Now that she has a chance to follow Han Ming for a long time, how can she not be happy, after these few months, her relationship with her own young master should be much better.

Han Ming was a little puzzled in his heart, it was just a detoxification, as for that trouble, it would take several months! And what was the use of asking for this little girl?

Although Han Ming was full of questions, he still obediently took Nan'er to follow behind Hua Lao, not daring to have any disobedience.

Han Ming and Nan'er followed Hua Lao to his cave mansion, still as before, a few candles were lit in the stone room, but it was not dark in the stone room, because the main light source in the stone room was a dozen white ores inlaid on the wall. This ore resembles jade, not jade, and a little like wood, emitting a gentle white light.

There are also two stone doors in the stone room, I don't know where it leads, Hua Lao took the lead in stepping into the stone gate on the left, the stone door is black and hollow, I don't know what is behind.

Han Ming hesitated for a moment before stepping to follow, while Nan'er seemed to be afraid of the dark and kept following closely behind Han Ming.

There is also a staircase leading to the underground behind the stone door, and a candle is lit every dozen steps on both sides of the staircase, this candle curls with white smoke, and the gently flickering flame emits a faint light, and the corridor is still a little dim.

Han Ming had been reciting the classics in the library for two months, and he immediately recognized this candle, the candle fish candle.

Candle fish is a kind of fish that is a specialty of Baiyuan Lake in Luzhou, Wuguo, and the oil in their bodies can be ignited, and they are made into candles, and this kind of candle is called candle fish candles.

Candle fish candle is an extremely durable candle, one inch long candle fish candle can burn for three days, because of the extremely high use value, candle fish will soon be caught and used up, so now candle fish candle price is extremely expensive.

At the end of the corridor is a long passage, and there are a lot of candles and fish candles lit on both sides, and the corridor is not very bright, and you can barely see the road.

Han Ming is okay, she is not afraid of any darkness, but Nan'er is a girl who is going to be a little scared, she follows Han Ming tightly, she doesn't dare to leave half a step, she doesn't look like she is four or five years older than Han Ming at all.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the passage came to an end, and what appeared in front of Han Ming's eyes was an iron door one foot high, which looked extremely heavy. In the center of the large iron gate was a one-foot-long bronze lion's head, and the lion's mouth was large, revealing the long fangs inside.

Hua Lao put his hand into the mouth of the bronze lion, and before he knew what mechanism he had touched, the lion's head was split into two halves, and the big iron door slowly opened a gap.

"This is the thousand-machine lion head lock, the mechanism is in the lion's head, if it is opened by mistake, the lion's mouth will be bitten off immediately, and the arm will be broken in an instant, so don't move in the future. Hua Lao said leisurely, and then he put his hands on both sides of the iron door, and pushed the big iron door open with both arms.

Behind the door is a large space, which seems to be much brighter than in the passage, but it still doesn't have the feeling of brightness in the daytime, but it is very similar to the bright moon in the sky.

Han Ming followed Hua Lao into this space, he was taken aback when he looked carefully, it was hundreds of zhang wide, and the walls were full of those unknown ores on Hua Lao Cave, this kind of ore was like jade but not jade, and it was a little like wood, exuding a gentle white light, illuminating the entire space like a bright moon.

"This cave is in the middle of a mountain, and the outside is hundreds of feet of basalt, which can be described as impregnable, and no one can go out except the way we came. Hua Lao turned around and closed the big iron door, and locked the thousand-machine lion head lock without hurrying.

Han Ming smiled miserably in his heart, now there is really no way to go to the sky, there is no way to enter the ground, and it is impossible to regret it now.

"Master, I'm afraid we're already out of Zhu Chiyuan. Han Ming had already had this feeling, Hua Lao's cave mansion was on the edge of Zhu Chiyuan, and now he had walked so far along the passage, I was afraid that he had already left Zhu Chiyuan.

"Haha, indeed, we are in the 100,000 mountains behind Zhu Chiyuan. Hua Lao was very kind and patiently explained his doubts to Han Ming.

"Then what should we do with our food? It's not airtight here, do we have to make it ourselves?" Han Ming looked very confused.

Hua Lao stroked his beard and smiled all over his face, like a kind old grandfather, which made people feel good inadvertently.

"You don't have to worry about this little thing, you just take care of yourself, and besides, what you will eat in the future is not a meal. Hua Lao smiled more and more kindly.

Looking at Hua Lao's kind face, Han Ming even had some suspicions that Hua Lao's previous fierceness was his delusion.

Hua Lao really has a fairy wind and bones, a flowing beard, long drooping eyebrows, and snow-white hair, he is not like a doctor, but like a Taoist strange person who has achieved cultivation.

But at this moment, a trace of green flashed in the depths of Hua Lao's pupils.
